About the Burnham on Crouch Conservation Area
The Burnham on Crouch Conservation Area covers about 22 hectares within Maldon District Council’s area. Inside the boundary are 33 listed buildings (1 Grade II*, 32 Grade II). The most significant is Royal Corinthian Yacht Club, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
